That Moment in Time...

A little poem from June 2010.


To say I never loved you,
Would probably be a lie.
You made me feel amazing,
Before you made me cry. 
Perhaps if things were different
I never would have cared,
But I do have fond memories
Of ll the moments we shared.
But that's all it'll ever be;
Memories of long ago.
But I would do it all again the same
Even knowing what I know. 
I'll always feel a little bit broken,
A part of me not quite right.
When people try to get close,
I'll forever put up a fight.
But time is the greatest healer
And hopefully my heart will mend.
But I'll always remember that moment in time
That I prayed would have no end.

Bad to the bone

Bullies. I’m pretty sure we’ve all come across at least a couple in our lives. I’m also pretty sure that most of us have probably fallen victim to their bullying at some point or other. I’m sure statistics would tell us just what percentage of the population has been bullied. Except that the statistics would be wrong. I’d make book on that fact. There is a simple reason behind this thought; lots of people will never admit that they were bullied. Every so often I sort of forget about bullying a little bit, just for a tiny while. I’m an adult and I don’t have any children yet, so why should it be on my mind? But of course that’s not how it is at all. In a world full of social media and constant bitchiness in the tabloids and gossip magazines creating an environment where being openly nasty to another human being is “ok”, bullying is not only commonplace amongst all generations, it now has more outlets, excuses and possibility for harm than ever before. Now it can be anonymous, and ...

A year ago today my life changed forever…

Wednesday 7 th April 2010 started just like any other day for me. I went to work in the job I’d been in for two months and came home ready for my usual evening of socialising. I went for dinner with one of my best friends and her mum then headed off to another friend’s house to watch Rocky Horror as we’d just bought tickets for the stage show in the summer and I’d never seen it. However, that evening, somewhere between dinner and a movie, the person I was at that time somehow just ceased to be. She is just a memory now. I started to feel really uncomfortable and had a pretty bad tummy ache. I assumed I’d eaten too much and thought very little of it. As the evening went on it seemed to be getting worse, so as soon as the DVD finished I headed straight home. By the time I got home I could barely stand the pain. I struggled to park my car and struggled even more to get out of it and up the stairs. I managed to stand long enough to clean my teeth then just chucked my clothes in a heap and...

Live Fast, Die Young

The infamous phrase “live fast, die young” was first thrust upon the world in 1949. In fact the full quote, spoken by John Derek in the film Knock on Any Door was “live fast, die young and leave a good-looking corpse”, which is as hopeful as it is alarming. Now more than ever this saying is resonating in my mind, as we seem to be in the midst of yet another spate of tragic and untimely demises among the rich and famous. Last month the glorious mess that was Ryan Dunn died an awful death after driving too fast and under the influence of alcohol. He killed himself and his passenger. He was 34 years old. Dunn was always living on the edge, chasing his dreams and prolonging old age by forever behaving like an eight year old boy. He was famous and spent years delighting audiences by being utterly ridiculous in Jackass with his co-stars. He was fantastically entertaining and bizarrely attractive as he rocked the borderline bad-ass/idiot persona. Despite his crazy lifestyle, I don’t think...
